Donaldsonville Branch of the Parish Association Convenes at Ascension High School. The Donaldsonville branch of the parish teachers' association convened at the Ascension high school at 9 o'clock this morning, with President J. L. Rusca occupying the chair and a large attendance of teachers. In calling the meeting to order, President Rusca took occasion to deliver the following forceful address: We have organized ourselves into a parish teachers' association.

Let us hope that it will not fail of its purpose through lack of professional pride or professional spirit. Rather let us hope that the interest in and the power for good of these meetings will continue to widen as the months roll by. Let us continue the good work begun at our last meeting. Let there be no drones, no laggards among us. I ask you in the name of the thonsa, ds of school children throughout this parish, as they are to receive the benefits, to keep up this organization and to strive earnestly to do well the work which you are called upon to do.

We owe it a duty to ourselves and to the great cause for which we are laboring to take an active part in all that will add to our professional advancement and to the advancement of education in the south, and especially in Louisiana. Let us, my friends, have an abiding sense of the reponsibility resting upon us. Do we ever stop to think that we are shaping the future lives and moulding the characters of our pupils? That in due time these pupils will become worthy citizens of a country of which each one is an essential and integral part, each competent to do his share in guiding the future life and defending the honor of the republic? If these views of our duties as teachers are sound, then it is evident that it is the teachers ih the public schools of the United States who, today, more than any other profession or class. hold in their hands the destinies of the nation. Realizing this, then, let us endeavor to be in the highest degree useful to those who are to be taught.

Let us cultivate that spirit which elevates above everything else the nature of the human soul and which trembles under the respinsibility of attempting to be its educator: a spirit that looks upon gold as th, dross of earth when compared with that imperishable gern which is to be polished and brought out into heaven's light to shine forever; a spirit that can recognize the handiwork of God in every child and that burns with a desire to be instrumental in training it to the highest attainment of which it is capable. Following is the interesting program carried out at today's session of the association: Opening exercises-Song, "My Old Kentucky Home." Roll call--responses from "Jean Mitchell's School." "Science of Study," Chapter 3Mrs. W. A. Skolfield.

Pugh, president of the Ascension school board, and Prof. D. B.

"A deep wound in my foot, from an accident," writes Theodore Schuele, of Columbus, "caused me great pain. Physicians were helpless, but Bucklen's Arnica Salve quickly healed it." Soothes and heals burns like magic.

Weather and Crops. A heavy wind and rain storm set in about 6:30 o'clock Monday evening and continued almost without interruption until an early hour Tuesday morning. The windblew a gale and the precipitation, according to Local Observer Park's figures, was 3.85 inches, although it is probable that fully an inch more of rain fell than is officially recorded, the high wind having prevented a great deal of the downpour from falling into Mr. Park's guage. Owing to the suddenness and great force of the downpour, together with the previous dry condition of the soil, the ground dried out rapidly and it was difficult to believe from appearances Tuesday.

that the rainfall had been so great. The weather since Monday has been warm and clear, and under the influence of the timely wetting and the genial sushine following it, vegetation of all kinds is coming forth and upward with a rush. Of course, grass is coming along with it, and the field forces on the various plantations are being placed in readiness to begin the irrepressible conflict for the suppression of this undesirable adjunct to the cane, corn and cotton crops. Among the guests from near-by points who attended the Alpha Omega german Thursday night were the following: Mr. and Mrs.

Clerville Himel, of Minnie plantation; Mr. and Mrs. Frank K. Sims and Ernest Barton, of St. Emma; Mrs.

Carroll Barton, Misses Katherine Rogers and Carrie Barton and S. K. Barton, of Belclos; Percy Barton, of Little Texas; W. J. Foley, of Napoleonville; Ernest Roger, of Thibodaux; Mr.

Duffel, Misses Lela Morgan, Helene Reuss, I Edna and Annette White, Lucille Troenle, Corinne Braun, Guy Cage and Evan Lansing, of Hohen Solms; Dr. D. C. Brumfield, of Darrow. Melville Israel, formerly of Salsburg plantation, but who removed to New Orleans with his family a month or so ago, spent several days at Salsburg this week and made an occasional visit to Donaidsonville, greatly to the gratification of his many friends in this community.

Mr. Israel left for Burnside last evening and will participate in a clay-bird shoot scheduled to take place today on the grounds of the Burnside Gun Club. He is being entertained at Burnside by Dr. J. T.

Bringier. Prof. D. B. Showalter went to New Orleans Tuesday morning in company with his bright little daughter, Marie, who was operated on the following day for an affection of the throat that has caused her a great deal of annoyance for some time.

The Chief trusts that the operation will prove successful and that the little patient will soon be completely restored to health.
